But this fact didn&#8217;t affect us, and we found the first and second biggest animals of the world: <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/01\/blue-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blue whale<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/fin-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fin whale<\/a>. In the morning we saw an adult fin whale with a calf very curious with our boats. What a moment!! In the afternoon we found several fin whales, and in the middle of them&#8230; a blue whale! We also saw a group of <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/bottlenose-dolphin.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bottlenose dolphins<\/a>, both in the morning and afternoon, that delighted our wonderful cloudy day.
